Why do Objects get bigger when you multiply scale by A number greater than one?
why do objects get bigger when you multiply/scale by a number greater than 1
Why does a number get smaller when you multiply by a proper fraction?
When you multiply a number by 1, it stays the same. When you multiply a number by a number greater than 1, it increases. When you multiply a number by a number that is less than 1 (a proper fraction), it decreases.
What happens when you multiply a number like 10 with a number bigger than 1?
Multiply by a number greater than 1 will increase the value. Multiplying by less than one will decrease the number.
What happens when you multiply a positive number by a greater number than 1?
It increases.
When you multiply a fraction times a fraction the product will be smaller than either factor Why?
When you multiply two numbers greater than one, you create many groups of a given number, so the result is greater than either the number of groups or the number you created many groups of. When you multiply a number by a number less than one, you create less than one group of a given number. If you create only part of one group of a given number, it makes sense that the result will be less than the number you started with.
